The fire regime is a central framing concept in wildfire science and ecology and describes how a range of wildfire characteristics vary geographically over time. Understanding and mapping fire regimes is important for guiding appropriate management and risk reduction strategies and for informing research on drivers of global change and altered. Abstract. Fire is a highly frequent and ecologically important phenomenon in the savanna landscape of the Kakadu region. The fire history of the region can be divided into three periods: i) pre-Aboriginal (before about 50 years ago) where ignitions were presumably restricted to lightning strikes immediately before and during the early part of the wet season; ii) Aboriginal, when fires were Cited by:

Choose a topic in fire ecology and/or management that is of particular interest to you. Research peer-reviewed original research journal articles, and write a review article summarizing, synthesizing, and critiquing the reports. Fire ecology is a scientific discipline concerned with natural processes involving fire in an ecosystem and the ecological effects, the interactions between fire and the abiotic and biotic components of an ecosystem, and the role as an ecosystem process. Many ecosystems, particularly prairie, savanna, chaparral and coniferous forests, have evolved with fire as an essential contributor to. book All of life on earth exists in a region known as a. an ecosystem b. a biome c. the biosphere d. ecology b. community book Groups of different species that live together in a defined area make up a(an) a. population b. community c. ecosystem d. biosphere.
